wayfinding
Some places have trees that grow along the road. We’ve got something similar, only it’s signage sprouting all over the place.
(You may think, “Wow, only 98 more miles to Big Lake. I bet it’s nice there in the summer, what with a big lake and all!” DO NOT FALL FOR THIS TRICK.)

got the blues
I think at some point this building had been a school but those days are pretty far in the past. Now it’s falling down (literally) and filling up with dirt from frequent dust storms (also literally).
However, I greatly admire someone’s decision to go with the blue glazed bricks AND the blue desks. That was a bold decision (maybe) but it’s still paying off (in my opinion).

sturgeon moon
It really is hard to beat a summer night at a baseball game. And when you can see the Sturgeon Moon rise over the field…it’s just about perfect!

he was out at first
That runner gave it all he had, but he was watching the ball could already tell that he’d be out at first.
His team (the Amarillo Sod Poodles) won, anyway.

game/face
Because I am still encumbered by that delightful orthopedic boot, I am looking for ways I can still make photos without a lot of walking around. Also, it’s freaking hot and who needs to be walking around in that??
Turns out that a minor league baseball game holds a pretty good set of subjects, including this player getting ready for his turn at bat. I’ve never quite seen this much concentration on one face.
